Below is the transcript of the speech from youtube, apologies for the awkward way it's transcribed, it's just how it is and I don't have the time to painstackingly remove the time stamps and edit. I couldn't find the full transcript anywhere so this will have to do. Or you could watch the video, since it wasn't broadcast on the television.

it is the chronicle of brave citizens

who never give up on the dream of a

better and brighter future and it is the
04:16
saga of thirteen separate colonies that
04:19
United to form the most just and
04:21
virtuous Republic ever conceived on this
04:26
day two hundred and forty three years
04:29
ago our founding fathers pledged their
04:32
lives their fortunes and their sacred
04:34
honor to declare independence and defend
04:38
our god-given rights Thomas Jefferson
04:52
wrote the words that forever changed the
04:54
course of humanity we hold these truths
04:56
to be self-evident that all men are
04:59
created equal that they are endowed by
05:01
their creator with certain unalienable
05:03
rights that among these are life liberty
05:07
and the pursuit of happiness
05:15
with a single sheet of parchment and 56
05:20
signatures America began the greatest
05:22
political journey in human history but
05:25
on that day the Patriots who would
05:28
determine the ultimate success of the
05:30
struggle were a hundred miles away in
05:33
New York there the Continental Army
05:36
prepared to make its stand
05:38
commanded by the beloved General George
05:42
Washington as the delegates debated the
05:52
declaration in Philadelphia
05:54
Washington's army watched from Manhattan
05:57
as a massive British invading fleet
06:00
loomed dangerously across New York
06:02
Harbor the British had come to crush the
06:06
revolution in its infancy
06:08
Washington's message to his troops laid
06:11
bare the stakes
06:12
he wrote the fate of unborn millions
06:16
will now depend under God on the courage
06:20
and conduct of this army we have
06:22
therefore to resolve to conquer or die
06:35
days later General Washington ordered
06:39
the declaration read aloud to the troops
06:42
the assembled soldiers just joined an
06:45
excited crowd running down Broadway they
06:48
toppled the statue of King George and
06:51
melted it into bullets for battle
06:53
the faraway King would soon learn a
06:56
timeless lesson about the people of this
06:59
majestic land Americans love our freedom
07:03
and no one will ever take it away from
07:06
us
07:21
that same American spirit that
07:24
emboldened our founders has kept us
07:27
strong throughout our history to this
07:29
day that spirit runs through the veins
07:31
of every American patriot it lives on
07:35
and each and every one of you here today
07:38
it is the spirit daring and defiance
07:42
excellence and adventure courage and
07:44
confidence loyalty and love that built
07:47
this country into the most exceptional
07:50
nation in the history of the world and

07:56
ever was before it is its strongest now

rugged American character led the
08:30
legendary explorers Lewis and Clark on
08:33
their perilous expedition across an
08:35
untamed continent
08:37
it drove others to journey west and
08:40
stake out their claim on the wild
08:44
frontier devotion to our founding ideals
08:47
let American patriots to abolish the
08:50
evil of slavery secure civil rights and
08:53
expand the blessings of liberty to all
08:56
Americans this is the noble purpose that
09:07
inspired Abraham Lincoln to rededicate
09:10
our nation to a new birth of freedom and
09:12
to resolve that we will always have a
09:15
government of By and For the People
09:24

telephone the Wright brothers to look to

cotton and just a few dollars in their

magnificent machines up and over the

risk court-martial in his quest for an

American resolve and as President

Roosevelt said the Nazis built the
27:14
fortress around Europe but they forgot
27:17
to put a roof on it
